#REDIRECT [[Bedroom]]
{{Quality|Exceptional|06:22, 15 July 2010 (UTC)}}
 
[[File:bedroom_preview.png|thumb|320px|right|A bedroom a player was lazy in creating.]]A '''bedroom''' is a [[room]] defined from a [[bed]]. Bedrooms are automatically claimed by [[dwarves]] (or spouses of dwarves); or they may be manually assigned to a dwarf. Once a bedroom has an owner, it becomes the private quarters for that dwarf, where he/she will [[sleep]], store any belongings that are not carried, and hang out in if there is no [[activity zone|meeting area]]. Alternatively, a bedroom may be designated as a [[barracks]] or [[dormitory]].
 
 
 
==Setup and ownership==
 
To create a bedroom, you must first craft a [[bed]] in a [[carpenter's workshop]], then {{k|b}}uild it. Dwarves will not sleep in beds which have been produced in a workshop until they are placed via the build menu.  Dwarves will sleep in beds that are built, but will not claim them until they are properly designated as a bedroom. To turn a bed into a bedroom, you must {{k|q}}uery the bed, make a bed{{k|r}}oom out of it, and set it to the desired size.
 
 
 
A dwarf with no bedroom will automatically claim an unowned bedroom upon sleeping in it. The player can also manually assign bedrooms or change the ownership from one dwarf to another. Married couples have joint ownership of a single bedroom and sleep in the same bed; [[children|babies]] will also share a bedroom with their mother until they grow into children. Assigning a dwarf a new bedroom will NOT un-assign them from their old bedroom(s); if you want them to only have one bedroom, you'll need to track down their old bedroom and un-assign it.
 
 
 
===Other furniture===
 
Turning a bed into a bedroom makes all other pieces of [[furniture]] in the room (such as [[cabinet]]s and [[container|coffer]]s) usable by the dwarf that owns the bedroom.  Owning furniture (especially high-quality furniture) gives dwarves happy [[thought]]s, and cabinets and coffers give them a place to store their possessions.
 
 
 
To remove a bedroom, {{k|q}}uery the bed that the room comes from and {{k|f}}ree it. The bedroom will be removed, and the bed will become a normal, constructed bed.
 
 
 
<!--===Who will sleep where===
 
Prior to 31.16 there was a bug causing assigned beds to be used by non-owners, even when there is a perfectly good unassigned or community bed available.
 
Prior to the start of the [[dwarven economy]], civilian dwarves will sleep in any constructed bed that doesn't belong to a different dwarf. Their preference for where to sleep appears to be: own room, unclaimed bedroom, a [[dormitory]], a constructed bed not yet designated into a bedroom, and finally the cold hard floor (preferably in a dormitory). After the start of the economy, they will only sleep in owned rooms or in a dormitory.
 
 
 
[[Military]] dwarves will sleep in the [[barracks]], unless told to sleep in their own bedrooms via their squad's settings.
 
 
 
Dwarves with the [[hunting]] labor enabled will sleep anywhere.-->
 
 
 
==Design tips==
 
[[Image:Dwarven_Housing.png|thumb|right|A true dwarf does not care for pretty designs or "privacy". For a dwarf, a bedroom is a hole where he dumps his body for rest and his [[Finished goods|Useless crap]] for storage, to never touch again.]]
 
{{main|Bedroom design}}
 
The living quarters of a fortress can take up a very large area, and since there will be constant [[traffic]] of dwarves going to and from their bedrooms, it is important to put some thought into the placement of the bedrooms. Simply making a long hall with rooms branching off from it is a simple method, but dwarves living at the end of the hall will have to travel a long time, and there will be a lot of dwarves bumping into each other at the entrance of the hall. Making multilevel living complexes can dramatically reduce the amount of time it takes for dwarves to travel to their bedrooms.
 
 
 
There is no need to build massive palaces for the average dwarf. They will get happy [[thoughts]] just from having a bedroom to claim as their own, though bigger and shinier ones will make them happier. Three tiles gives enough room for a [[bed]], a [[cabinet]], and a [[chest]], everything a dwarf needs. These pieces of furniture do ''not'' block movement.
